BILL EXPLAINER / FICTIONAL EXAMPLE

The total does not tell the whole story.

The current example shows Rs 745.00, but its supplied rules explain only Rs 660.00.

CHANGE IN STATED TOTAL

+Rs 85.00

Higher than the previous fictional bill.

Previous example
Rs 660.00
Current example
Rs 745.00

Rs 85.00 unexplained in the current example. Not proof of overcharging.

01 / ACCOUNT FOR THE DIFFERENCE

Where did the change come from?

Rs 85.00 remains unexplained by the supplied fictional inputs. It could reflect missing information or an error; this demo cannot decide which. It is not proof of overcharging.

  1. Unexplained difference

    +Rs 85.00

    Change in the gap between each stated total and its explained charges. Not a validated charge.

    Fictional rule basis
Total change+Rs 85.00
Show 5 unchanged components

  1. Energy: billing period

    Rs 0.00

    Previous average kWh/day extended to the current period, at the previous rate.

    Fictional rule basis

  2. Energy: consumption

    Rs 0.00

    Current units minus that period-adjusted reference, at the previous rate.

    Fictional rule basis

  3. Energy: unit rate

    Rs 0.00

    Current kWh multiplied by the difference in unit rates.

    Fictional rule basis

  4. Fixed charges

    Rs 0.00

    Current days × current daily charge, minus previous days × previous daily charge.

    Fictional rule basis

  5. Documented demo credit

    Rs 0.00

    A credit subtracts from the total. Compare the two supplied credit amounts.

    Fictional rule basis

Allocation order: period at the previous daily average, consumption at the previous rate, then the rate change at current consumption. The period reference is rounded once to the nearest paise; consumption takes the remainder. This is an arithmetic decomposition, not a causal explanation of behaviour.

02 / NOTHING HIDDEN IN THE MATH

The supplied inputs.

One unit is one kWh in this demo. All amounts use integer paise. Each bill uses one flat rate for its entire period.
